Pupil
The
pupil is a hole located in the center of the
iris of the
eye that allows light to strike the
retina. It appears black because light rays entering the pupil are either absorbed by the
tissues inside the eye directly, or absorbed after diffuse reflections within the eye that mostly miss exiting the narrow pupil.
